“Nebula” is the debut album by the Danish quartet Tidal Force, made up by Emil Bech, Frederik Olsen and two other musicians who go under the aliases HC Aarup and PC-72. Slightly carrying on in the footsteps of melodic side of the Berliner School, they’ve composed some energetic music that pairs fast sequenced and well-tempered cosmic music with a progressive/rock approach, due to the use of e-guitar. It’s music made in the moment, in which improvisation plays an important part. Next to a nice spatial and warm sound, the almost 23-minute title track for example contains moody interludes beside some lovely mellotron textures found in the outro of the track. “Gaining Momentum” takes a more raw and in-your-face approach, but it’s the up-tempo sequencing and layering that make this piece worthwhile for me. The final piece “Tidal Force” is a partly rocking extravaganza with some firm e-guitar along twittering effects and retro sequencing. All in all, “Nebula” makes up instrumental space-electronics with a rough rim to it. |
